While Papa Bear is still deep in his REM cycle, his son follows a curious honeybee out of the forest and into the city. In this richly illustrated book by French author and artist Benjamin Chaud, characters pull young readers into colorful scenes of the bears' wild-goose chase through the Paris opera house. After Papa's rather embarrassing aria, the two settle on the rooftop for some honey and a long-awaited nap. More than just a story on the love of family, there is so much for readers to see and interact with in the detailed artwork on every page.
